BALOCHISTAN CONFERENCE: Some comparison

 February 28, 2010 Jumma Marri Baloch Conference at Bangkok was held with success in spite of fact that some calls of boycott by our some Baloch brothers who unwillingly or willing came together with Pakistani policies of divide and rule in other words they stood with Baloch enemies by opposing a conference which was held to highlight the sufferings being inflected to Baloch masses and enhance Baloch rights for self determination. Those brothers who opposed this conference must felt ashamed by the end result of this conference where none other than Baloch rights were discussed and highlighted contrary to the opposing sides nobody was abused and back bitted there was no place for back b...   details >>

BANGKOK CONFERENCE: Governance in Balochistan

 by Wendy Johnson  Feb 22, 2010 Below is the text of paper presented by Ms.wendy Johnson at Bangkok conference, title "Governance in Balochistan" Three images I have seen cross my website over the past few years abide in my memory. One is a photo of students in Quetta—dressed in white dress shirts and black slacks, lying on the street, protesting the lack of places for them at a university. Another is a video of a woman with ropes over her shoulders, dragging something. As the camera follows her, in what appears to be a desert, it soon becomes apparent—and this video is very cinematic—that she is laboriously drawing water from a well. This is 2009, mind you. A third image is a pho...   details >>

Pakistan the oppressor

 It is little surprise that Baloch nationalist leaders have rejected the latest peace package proposed by Islamabad Peter Tatchell Thursday 28 January 2010 A series of massacres of peaceful protesters by Pakistani security forces look set to sink hopes of a settlement deal between the government in Islamabad and Baloch nationalists who are campaigning for self-rule. There are fears that the sinister, shadowy Pakistani military and intelligence agencies are behind these killings, in a deliberate attempt to sabotage the reconciliation package put forward by the government of President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani. On 15 January, at least two Baloch political activi...   details >>

Balochistan is no Bangladesh

 Sushant Sareen January 19, 2010   The separatist sentiment sweeping through the province of Balochistan has led many in Pakistan to draw parallels with the situation that prevailed in East Pakistan and which ultimately culminated in the formation of an independent state, Bangladesh. But such parallels, while they sensationalize the issue of Balochistan and help to draw attention to it, tend to gloss over some very critical differences between the situation that existed in the erstwhile East Pakistan and what obtains in today’s Balochistan. More than the similarities, which are many, between East Pakistan of yore and Balochistan of today, it is the differences that stand in the...   details >>

BALOCHISTAN & KASHMIR — DIFFERENT NOTES

 Malladi Rama Rao The Khan of Kalat, the traditional ruler of the predominant Baloch state of Kalat, chose independence, and claimed that Nepal and Kalat had the same status. In 1947, he  was the most powerful ruler of what is today’s Balochistan and acknowledged lord of all Baloch tribes. However, after the British departed, Pakistan army moved in and the Baloch territories were merged with Pakistan. Who ratified the merger? Well that honour went to the Quetta municipality, a body dominated by non-Baloch settlers. Since then, violence has erupted in Balochistan five times – 1948, 1958, 1963-64, 1973-77 and again now with the Khans of Kalat again in the forefront. Interestingly, Baloch ...   details >>

Why Always Balochs of Lyari ?

 BY A.A. Baloch   As a part of so-called ‘Operation Cleanup’ last night around 2-3.00 a.m. Rangers tried to enter into some parts of Lyari i.e. Gul Muhammad Lane & adjoining areas but didn’t succeed, thanks to the brave people of Lyari (especially women & children), who in spite of severe cold, gathered at Moulvi Osman Park. In spite of cod dead night, thousands of people rushed outside their homes, after announcements were made on loudspeakers. This incident must be sufficient to open the eyes of people of Lyari that PPP is nothing but proved to be a back stabber.  PPP always used Balochs as a goat to slaughter them.. Thanks to the alleged PPP, MQM alliance, several inn...   details >>

The mess over the missing in Balochistan

 January 8, 2010 Nirupama Subramanian The issue of enforced disappearances is now seen as one of the biggest hurdles to Islamabad's efforts to make peace with the Baloch people. Since December 30 last, a group of two dozen boys and girls, accompanied by a few adult women, has been squatting outside the Quetta Press Club, braving the biting cold that sweeps through Pakistan’s Balochistan province at this time of the year. The group is on a daily hunger-strike, protesting the disappearance of a father or a brother, allegedly after he was taken away by state intelligence agencies. Holding photographs of their missing family members, these children say they will sit there indefinitely —...   details >>

Strategic Balochistan becomes a target in war against Taliban

 Monday 21 December 2009 Look around Balochistan, and you may not see much. Pakistan's largest province is also its poorest and least inhabited – an expanse of rocky deserts and ramshackle villages where hardy tribesmen live by ancient laws. But to outside eyes, Balochistan's barren sands glisten with hidden value. Mining companies eye its natural riches: vast and largely untapped reserves of copper, natural gas and possibly oil. Criminals see easy money: the world's heroin superhighway, a network of smuggling trails, cuts through its lonely borders. Foreign governments consider its location: wedged between Iran and Afghanistan, and covering two-fifths of Pakistan, Balochistan occupies hig...   details >>

Government accused of “cheating” missing persons’ families

 By Malik Siraj Akbar   QUETTA, Dec 2: Majority of the families of the ‘missing persons’ in different parts of Balochistan are discontented with the slow pace of government response to release their family members after the announcement of Balochistan package by Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gillani which led to the release of at least twenty disappeared people. As promised by the prime minister, around twenty missing persons, including fifteen from the conflict-stricken district of Dera Bugti, have already resurfaced from different parts of Balochistan. They reached their homes to celebrate Eid but the release of only twenty people out of an estimated number of around four thousan...   details >>

IFJ: Situation Report for Pakistan,

  Monday, 9 November 2009, 12:55 pmPress Release: International Federation of Journalists November 9, 2009 Media personnel in Balochistan contend with alarmingly regular violence and threats as a consequence of their work, leading to widespread self-censorship. The difficulties are compounded by a historic failure to provide adequate professional training for local media personnel, the unwillingness of media proprietors to pay reasonable wages and support the safety of their workers, and a related attitude among some that media work is not a profession but merely a means to secure financial or political benefits by other means. The following report was commissioned by the Interna...   details >>
